Options and Upgrades Hydro-Guard® features, Options and Upgrades The following is a brief overview and introduction to Hydro-Guard® Sampling, Options and Upgrades.
Integrated Sample Station A standard feature on the HG-4 Sub-Surface Discharge Unit, HydroGuard’s Sample Port allows the end user to collect the sample. You may wish to run a brief manualmode flush prior to the collection in order to ensure water indicative of the main-line water quality is being sampled. Generally a two-minute flush is sufficient. Track your residual levels and alter flushing frequency and/or duration in order to maximize water conservation.
Dechlorination All Hydro-Guard® Units include dechlorination systems. Dechlorination takes place as a portion of the discharged water passes through a housing containing either sodium sulfite or ascorbic acid tablets. This action creates a concentrated dechlorination solution that then mixes with the non-directly treated portion of the discharge to effectively dechlorinate the entire discharge volume. This option is available to be retrofitted onto the HG-4 Sub-Surface Discharge Unit.
